FASHION: Meadham Kirchhoff, Fall 2011





  

Here are a few of my favorites from the Meadham Kirchhoff Fall 2011 show. Will we see a trend of these princess maidens in wool jackets, schoolgirl dresses, heavy underskirts and peasant tops? Hmmmm...I am picturing Michelle Williams in these clothes right now. Funky as always, I like what I see here. Do you? Besos!

Miu Miu, Fall 2011. Miucca Prada presented vintage 1940's Paris, WWII era inspired creations. Shown here are models Ginta Lapina, Natasha Poly, Juju Ivanyuk and Abbey Lee Kershaw. Love the red lips and half-pinned up hair. Also, pay attention to the shoes and sunglasses.
